Verse:
A5A5 E MajorE G#G# F#F#
Born in the spring, I’ve always needed
A5A5 E MajorE G#G#
Something to feel new
F#F# A5A5 E MajorE G#G#
And come to think of it now, so did you
F#F# A5A5 E MajorE G#G#
Maybe that explains this fascination with death
F#F#
Or a lack of ammunition
Chorus:
E5E5 A5A5 B5B5 F#5F#5
“It wasn’t me”, I heard you say
E5E5 A5A5 B5B5 F#5F#5
“The cross protects you from the shame”
E5E5 A5A5 B5B5 A5A5 B5B5 A5A5
That comes along with living in the kind of world
B5B5 F#5F#5 E5E5 A5A5 E MajorE G#G#
Where boys can only kiss the girls
A5A5 E MajorE G#G#
Verse:
A5A5 E MajorE G#G# F#F#
Excuse me, sir, do you have a light?
A5A5 E MajorE G#G#
I know that I can be dark
F#F# A5A5 E MajorE G#G#
But that’s what makes us brighter than the rest
F#F# A5A5 E MajorE G#G#
Who’d think a weight like this could make you feel blessed?
F#F#
Or a lack of seratonin
Chorus:
E5E5 A5A5
That shakes your brain
B5B5 F#5F#5 E5E5 A5A5
Till nothing’s left to rearrange
B5B5 F#5F#5 E5E5 A5A5
Folks start looking at you strange
B5B5 F#5F#5 E5E5 A5A5
Stoned by noon you fade away
B5B5 A5A5 B5B5 A5A5
Into the place that doesn’t feel
B5B5 F#5F#5 E5E5 A5A5 E MajorE G#G# F#5F#5
Nothing to hide, nothing to steal
Bridge:
A5A5 E MajorE G#G# F#5F#5 x2 F#F#
Verse:
A5A5 E MajorE G#G# F#5F#5
Not bittersweet, the taste of living
A5A5 E MajorE G#G#
An impossible dream
F#5F#5 A5A5 E MajorE G#G#
But we both know your future wasn’t with me
F#F#
Long before your body betrayed you
Chorus:
E5E5 A5A5 B5B5 F#5F#5 E5E5 A5A5
Royalty, through the streamers and the beams
B5B5 F#5F#5 E5E5 A5A5
They tied you up and called you queen
B5B5 F#5F#5 E5E5 A5A5
Passed out in a bathroom stall
B5B5 F#5F#5 E5E5 A5A5
You still looked better than them all
B5B5 A5A5 B5B5 A5A5
I kissed your head and walked away
B5B5 F#5F#5 E5E5 A5A5
Watched the castle dance in flames
B5B5 A5A5 B5B5 A5A5
I kissed your head and walked away
B5B5 F#5F#5 E5E5 A5A5
Watched the castle dance in flames
